Composition in black and white. Tangled lines. Composition representing the upper half of support, head of French soldier with fast tangled lines further down suggesting the same body. The figure is with the head tilted slightly to the left and a little toward the on the right; it wears typical hat of the French soldiers of Napoleon's time with the sides of the flap up. His facial features are indicated, your body is defined only by the line of the shoulders, seeing it more down a tangle of loose lines suggesting, in part, the volume of the rest of the body.
